Senate
Key Points
- Treats some remote cloud use like an export when certain sensitive U.S.-controlled tech is accessed from outside the U.S.
- Targets “foreign persons of concern,” including certain governments, companies based there, or people under their control.
- Focuses on high-risk uses like training dangerous dual-use AI models, running offensive cyber tools, or human-rights-abusing surveillance (like spyware).
- Gives the President power to control and license this kind of remote access, with penalties and enforcement similar to other export control violations.
- Requires Commerce to keep Congress informed, issue a public report within 1 year, and sunsets this new remote-access control authority after 10 years.
